THE LEVEL, DYNAMIC AND DIVERSITY OF LABOR PRODUCTIVITY CASE OF EU REGIONS IN 2000–2011

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the paper is an attempt to analyze the level, dynamic and diversity of labor productivity in EU regions in 2000–2011. Labor productivity is computed as a ratio of regional Gross Domestic Product in purchasing power parity (PPP) and the employment level in analyzed regions. Conducted research indicated that in analyzed period the level and dynamic of labor productivity have shown significant changes. Wherein, these changes should be regarded as positive. Conducted analysis showed also the presence of a substantial and systematic decline of labor productivity diversity between EU regions (the only exception was 2010). Constant level of diversity observed within regions from EU15 countries mean that the observed decrease had to result from a significant decline of diversity between the regions belonging to the old and new EU Member States.
